Warnings and Cautionsfor Using the Steering Wheel
WARNING
Never adjust the steering wheel while
the vehicle is moving.
Adjusting the steering wheel while the
vehicle is moving is dangerous. Moving
it can very easily cause the driver to
abruptly turn to the left or right. This
can lead to loss of control or an
accident.
After adjusting the steering wheel
position, make sure it is securely
locked by trying to move it up and
down.
Driving with the steering wheel not
securely locked in position is
dangerous. If the steering wheel moves
unexpectedly while driving, you could
lose control of the steering resulting in
an accident.

Warning and Cautions forUsing the Selector Lever
WARNING
Always apply the parking brake when
the selector lever is in the P position.
When parking the vehicle, only shifting
the selector lever to the P position is
dangerous as the vehicle may move
unexpectedly and result in an accident.
Do not move the selector lever from
the N or P position while the engine
speed is high.
Otherwise, the vehicle will move
suddenly which could lead to an
unexpected accident.
When operating the selector lever,
shift the selector lever with the brake
pedal firmly depressed and the
vehicle completely stopped.
Operating the selector lever while the
vehicle is moving could lead to an
unexpected accident.
Do not shift the selector lever with the
accelerator pedal depressed when the
selector lever is in the P or N position.
Always operate the selector lever with
the brake pedal depressed when the
selector lever is in the P or N position.
Otherwise, the vehicle will suddenly
accelerate which could lead to an
accident.
Do not shift the selector lever to the N
position while driving.
Otherwise, it could result in the loss of
the engine braking power and cause
an accident.
Do not depress the accelerator pedal
unnecessarily while the vehicle is
stopped.
If the accelerator pedal is mistakenly
depressed when the se lector lever is in
a position other than the P or N
position, the vehicle could suddenly
accelerate resulting in an accident.
After stopping the vehicle, check the
shift position indication in the
instrument cluster before
re-accelerating.
If the vehicle were to move
unexpectedly, it could lead to an
accident.
Do not allow the vehicle to move in
reverse on an upslope while the
selector lever is in forward drive, or
move forward on a downslope while
the selector lever is in reverse drive.
Otherwise, the engine could stop,
making the steering wheel difficult to
control, which could result in an
accident.
CAUTION
 When visually checking at the rear of
the vehicle while reversing the
vehicle, your body twists around to
the rear. Be careful and make sure
that the brake pedal can be firmly
depressed.
 Completely stop the vehicle before
shifting the select or lever to the P
position. If the selector lever is
shifted to P position before the
vehicle is completely stopped,
unnecessary force will be applied to
the transmission which could cause
damage.

AUTOHOLD
AUTOHOLD is a function to keep the
vehicle stopped by applying the brakes
even if you take your foot off the brake
pedal while the vehicle is stopped. This
function reduces the burden on the
driver while the vehicle is stopped,
such as at traffic lights.
Warning and Cautions for
Using the AUTOHOLD
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the
AUTOHOLD function.
The AUTOHOLD function is only
designed to assist the brake operation
while the vehicle is stopped.
Neglecting to operate the brakes and
relying only on the AUTOHOLD system
is dangerous and could result in an
unexpected accident if the vehicle
were to suddenly move. Operate the
brakes appropriately in accordance
with the road and surrounding
conditions. Note that the vehicle may
move suddenly depending on the
vehicle’s load or if it is towing
something.
Do not release your foot from the
brake pedal while the vehicle is
stopped on a steep grade.
Because there is a possibility of the
vehicle not being held in the stopped
position by the AUTOHOLD function,
the vehicle may move unexpectedly
and result in an accident.
Refrain from using the AUTOHOLD
function on slippery roads such as icy
or snow-covered roads, or unpaved
roads.
Even if the vehicle is held in the
stopped position by the AUTOHOLD
function, the vehicle may move
unexpectedly and result in an accident.
Operate the accelerator pedal, brakes,
or steering wheel appropriately as
necessary.

position.
While the lever is in the 2 or 3
position, each turn signal light flashes
and the turn signal light
in the
instrument cluster flashes.
If you move the lever to the 2 or 3
position and release it immediately,
the three-flash turn signal operates and
the turn signal light flashes 3 times.

Dynamic Stability Control(DSC)
The DSC automatically controls
braking and hybrid system power
output in conjunct ion with systems
such as the ABS and TCS to help
control side slip when driving on
slippery surfaces, or during sudden or
evasive steering, which enhances
vehicle stability.
Also refer to Antilock Brake System
(ABS) 5-84, Traction Control System
(TCS) 5-85.
Warning and Cautions for
Using the Dynamic
Stability Control (DSC)
WARNING
Do not rely on the Dynamic Stability
Control as a substitute for safe
driving.
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
cannot compensate for unsafe and
reckless driving , excessive speed,
tailgating (following another vehicle
too closely), and hydroplaning
(reduced tire friction and road contact
because of water on the road surface).
You can still have an accident.
CAUTION
 Heed the following cautions so that
the DSC can operate normally.
 Always use tires of the specified
size, same manufacturer, brand,
and pattern (tread pattern) for the
front and rear wheels.
 Do not use tires with
significantly
different wear patterns on the
same vehicle.
 Do not use tires with sizes other
than the specified size, different
type, and
significantly
different
wear patterns on the same vehicle.
 When using tires where the tire
diameter is changed due to the
installation of tire chains, or when
installing an emergency spare tire,
the DSC may not operate normally.

Hill Descent Control*
The hill descent control is a system that
maintains a constant vehicle speed
when the vehicle descends a steep
slope, off-road or on a snowy road. As
the low speed can be maintained
without operating the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal, the driver
can concentrate on the steering wheel
operation.
Warnings and Cautions
for Using the Hill Descent Control
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the hill
descent control.
If necessary, depress the brake pedal
on a slippery road surface such as
extremely steep slope s, icy roads, or
mud or gravel roads. Failure to
maintain a constant low speed may
result in an unexpected accident.
Always drive carefully.

Tire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS)
The TPMS monitors the air pressure of
each tire and informs the driver of a
decrease in the tire air pressure when it
becomes lower than the specified air
pressure.
For the TPMS, the air pressure data
sent from the tire pressure sensors
installed on each wheel via radio signal
is received by the receiver unit in the
vehicle to monitor the tire pressures.
1. Tire pressure sensor
Warning and Cautions forUsing the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle at high
speeds if the TPMS warning light
is
turned on or flashing.
Driving the vehicle at high speeds
while the TPMS warning light is turned
on or flashing is dangerous because
the brake performance and the
steering wheel operability will be
reduced. If the vehicle is driven at high
speeds or the brakes are suddenly
applied, it could lead to an accident.
Gradually apply the brake and reduce
the vehicle speed.
Do not ignore the TPMS warning light
when it is turned on or flashing.
Continuing to driv e the vehicle while
ignoring the illumi nation/flashing of
the TPMS warning light is dangerous
because a tire may burst which could
lead to an accident. Take appropriate
measures as soon as possible.
